Takashi Shimizu’s Ju-On: The Grudge was remade stateside with 2004’s The Grudge (which he also directed). Although Shimizu is not behind the camera for this iteration, The Grudge is helmed by Nicolas Pesce, the visionary filmmaker behind The Eyes of My Mother and Piercing. Pesce has a knack for building immersive and tangible worlds within an indie budget, and will be interesting to see how his cinematic flair is influenced with more cash at his disposal.
